Judge Calls 13-Year-Old Girl Who Was Sexually Assaulted by a 41-Year-Old "Predatory"

[RandySF]

This week in the UK, Judge Nigel Peters gave a suspended sentence to 41 year-old Neil Wilson after he pleaded guilty to “making extreme pornographic images and one count of sexual activity” with a 13 year-old girl. The judge explained his leniency as stemming from the fact that “the girl was predatory and was egging you on.” During the trial, the prosecution had declared the girl was “sexually experienced” and that “She appeared to look around 14 or 15 and had the mental age of a 14 or 15 year old despite being younger than that. There was sexual activity but it was not of Mr. Wilson’s doing, you might say it was forced upon him despite being older and stronger than her.” Law enforcement also found “a stash of images and videos depicting child abuse and bestiality” in Wilson’s home, but sure, the 13 year-old girl is the predator here.

1. FFS!

[uppityperson]

2. Oh, well she looked acted like she was 14 so that makes it all ok? And 41 had no ability to restrain

himself? Well, that certainly clears it all up.

argh

[elehhhhna]

17. sure he was older and bigger but his peen tingled and BOOM

out of control all over the 14-15 year old 13 year old.

Now I get it.

[polly7]

3. Makes me wonder how big a child-abuse image stash that judge has at home.

I think someone should find out.

[CFLDem]

28. I thought the same thing. n/t

[Jefferson23]

4. Talk about abusing the law, twisting it upside down. The judge needs to be removed from serving,

period.

This is a story that dates back to August 2013, do you know of an update on the case?

[niyad]

6. part of the sentence has been reviewd, and the judge is apparently under investigation

Paedophile whose victim was described as predatory has sentence increased
Judge who granted suspended sentence lengthens overall term by four months on technicality over indecent images charges



A convicted paedophile who escaped jail after his 13-year-old victim was described by a prosecutor as predatory has had his sentence increased because of a technicality.

Neil Wilson was given an eight-month suspended sentence after admitting he had engaged in sexual activity with the girl – as well as separate counts of making indecent images – at Snaresbrook crown court in east London last week.

News that the prosecutor Robert Colover had described the victim as predatory and sexually experienced caused outrage and led to his suspension from prosecuting sexual offence cases pending a review by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS).

[Jefferson23]

11. Excellent, thank you! n/t

[seabeyond]

30. thank you niyad... that just simply floors me. i would be so fuckin embarrassed that my

gender was perceived as so fuckin weak. totally amazing.

[niyad]

5. rec'ing because this disgusting crap needs to be widely known. rape culture is alive and well

everywhere. this CHILD forced this ADULT to have sex???? this older, bigger, stronger ADULT had so little self-control, self-awareness, that the CHILD forced him to have sex??? I wonder if that f****** judge even has any idea how insulting that actually is to the man.

oh, that "blind justice" were not a television program.

[freshwest]

20. Who knew that that girls and women had such powers? It's aupernatural, that's what it is! Excuse me

While I find a barf bag...

[niyad]

7. this is the "honourable judge nigel peters " (gee, judge, what's in YOUR closet??)

[seabeyond]

31. (gee, judge, what's in YOUR closet??) exactly. nt

[Orrex]

39. I'll bet that's not even his real hair.

[pokerfan]

8. Didn't we just go through this in Montana?

Yes we did...

Montana Teacher Who Raped Student Free After 31-Day Sentence

The former teacher who admitted raping his 14-year-old student was released from a Montana prison today after serving 30 days of his 31-day sentence. Stacey Rambold received the lenient sentence last month, after a Montana judge said the victim was “older than her chronological age” and “as much in control of the situation” as Rambold.

Rambold raped Cherice Morales in 2008, when Morales was a student at Billings Senior High School in Billings, Montana. In 2010, while the case was pending, Morales committed suicide. Morale's mother would later say Rambold's assault was a “major factor” in her daughter's suicide.

32. and alabama more recently and calif.... nt

[ScreamingMeemie]

9. Wha--?

Honestly.

[arely staircase]

10. Good God Almighty

assuming all of that is true - she looked older enticed him whatever, he is a grown man. give me a break.

[gollygee]

12. So she'd been raped in the past

and her behavior was shaped by that, and therefore it's OK to rape her again.

Sigh.

[etherealtruth]

15. A sadly accurate summation

[seabeyond]

33. point. i guess at this point all the men, the judge, prosecutor and rapist merely see

her as trash, instead of a fuckin victim

[bluesbassman]

60. Really? Not even statatory rape? Does that not exist in the UK?

I don't care how much a 13 yr old "knows" about what she's doing, a 41 year old has no justification there.

[bluesbassman]

63. A 13 yr old does not have the capacity to make it conensual.

There is a reason why minors are not allowed to enter into legally binding contracts and the same applies to sex. That she had been abused before and "knew" what she was doing is irrelevent.

[WinkyDink]

13. Perhaps someone should investigate this judge. Belgium can't have been unique.

[ismnotwasm]

14. Ew

Stay out of the malls gents, apparently those 14-15 year olds make you lose your minds

[mythology]

24. Perhaps my penis is defective because it's never jumped out of control

much less around somebody who is that young.

What sort of dumbass judge thinks that the kid is at fault?

[seabeyond]

34. good for you men. i would be so insulted if i was a man reading this shit. damn... nt

[TroglodyteScholar]

16. Judges make decisions like this, and meanwhile non-predatory porn is being blocked outright.

Get your fucking priorities right, UK!

[elehhhhna]

18. What is porn not predatory? and thank god you are here to defend rapeporn

as the world will, be a much better place with more of it?

[NickB79]

21. All porn is predatory and/or rapeporn? Did I read that right?

Did you forget the or something?

[gollygee]

23. Only rape porn is being blocked and only in the UK

so if there's outrage, that must be what it's about.

[NickB79]

25. Oh, ok. Thanks

I was unaware of UK rape porn policy, or even that it existed.

[TroglodyteScholar]

53. If you think all acts of human sexuality constitute violence towards women, I can't help you.

If you think porn=rape, you can't be helped.

Give women a little credit--if a man treated them as though they were that helpless, we'd get shouted down for that.

[seabeyond]

56. YOU made the statement it was being blocked. what is being blocked is RAPE porn. wtf are

you on about? you comment that it is being blocked has most of us thinking you are talking rape porn, since it is what is being blocked. now you are off on someone cause they assumed you knew what you were talking about.

[TroglodyteScholar]

65. I'm sorry, I have yet to see anything indicating that the UK will only block rape related content

When you act as though all porn it's rape, you really damage your cause.

Nobody ever wins debate by calling their opponent a rapist from go.

[seabeyond]

66. ah, so you go from one made up accusation to another. where have i said ALL porn is rape. point it

out

you cant.

isnt it really fun to go around saying what ever the fuck you want with absolutely no responsibility to live in the sphere of even kinda a truth?

so... because a law that has not even passed yet, that does not cover what you accused it does matters not cause you have no proof that what you say will happen has happened or not.

fuck

another

the cow jumped over the moon accusation

and you can say that because somewhere in time, in this vast universe, somewhere, sometimes, someone may say a cow jumped over the moon

excellent way to have an argument.

[TroglodyteScholar]

68. Simple

You and yours consistently use the phrase "rape porn" to describe a) any sexual content you disapprove of or b) any sexual content period.

It's dishonest, and not very smart if you truly want to influence attitudes.

[seabeyond]

69. one post.... one. yes. it is simple. you say whatever garbage as your argument and it fails

each. and. every. time.

show me where i have stated " "rape porn" to describe a) any sexual content you disapprove of or b) any sexual content period. "

one. you are now the fourth poster that has made this accusation. i have put out my fourth challenge for ONE post that i have " "rape porn" to describe a) any sexual content you disapprove of or b) any sexual content period. "

one.

you will fail along with the other three that have failed

one.

i wait....

[TroglodyteScholar]

70. Keep waiting

I failed to view your transparency page before engaging you. It tells me all I need to know.

[seabeyond]

71. so... another fail... just a made up story thrown out there with no basis. yup. #4 fail

at backing up a really stupid accusation

[elehhhhna]

73. you made up something very stoopid

try to comprehend the post

[seabeyond]

35. omg... some one afraid of losing their rape porn???? lmao. nt

[BainsBane]

51. What definition of rape is "non-predatory"

We are talking about porn where women are depicted as being beaten, mutilated, and murdered. In what conceivable notion is that non-predatory? Oh, I know. That judge's. The girl choose to be raped, she egged it on. The porn stars choose to be raped because it gets off misogynists (except when they are enslaved and have no choice). Those women in the porn flicks are asking for it, just like this child. One even insisted that 95% of women in real life are aroused by violence. So what have we got to complain about it? We're asking for it.

Moreover, the British law isn't in effect yet, and your efforts to use this child's assault to justify rape porn, and thereby the propagation of rape culture, is repulsive.

It has become crystal clear this week that too many men here feel entitled to get off on violence against women. In fact, many insist that violence against women only be discussed in relation to its arousal for men. Rape prevention PSAs that target rapists are "misandrist" and "harangue" men. Men bear no responsibility for rape; that falls to the victim, precisely as this judge asserts.

This sentence is the result of rape culture, of those who justify the eroticization of rape for their own titillation, who place responsibility on women for avoiding rape. This is the world made for and by rapists and rape pornographers.

[procon]

19. Throughout history men have tried to blame women for their bad behavior

The vanity of this pernicious conceit is still perpetuated by government and religion and it remains engrained in our society, but if we really were as powerful as these socially degenerate and predatory misanthropes fantasize us to be, they would all be trembling with fear instead of abusing us.

[WinkyDink]

43. And, alas, have succeeded.

[tblue37]

22. That is the whole attitude behind the requirement in some societies

that women be *completely* covered, head to toe--the notion that it is women's fault that men cannot control their own sexual behavior.

[Texasgal]

26. And people wonder why

Women in general are pissed off.

UGH.

[seabeyond]

36. exactly. wtf would us women be angry. hmmm. lets see. calif, montana, alabama, steubanville

kansas, tx.... and on and on and on.

oh, canada.

and florida yesterday

[seabeyond]

48. and this brings up and important point. it is so hard for girls and women to step forward. so many

do not even speak up and try. all this does, all across the nation, other countries, all it does is making it that much harder for a girl or woman to speak up about a rape. and then people actually condemn those girls and women that do not go to the police.

[WinkyDink]

45. MEN wonder, is what I think you meant. :-)

[BainsBane]

27. This is the real world impact of what we've been discussing all week

about rape porn. She wanted it. Girls are turned on by rape and violence. They provoke men. Rape is their responsibility, not the rapists. These are the messages communicated through rape porn and denunciations of rape preventions PSAs that target rapists rather than victims.
This folks is rape culture, the world the rapists and rape pornographers made.

[seabeyond]

38. right on.

[seabeyond]

29. omg, men are you not embarassed as fuck that your gender is looked at so pathetically by this male

judge?

isnt it just fuckin humiliating that a fuckin 13 yr old fuckin GIRL has it all over a grown man and a JUDGE actually looks at the man and says you are so pathetically stupid and this GIRl is so much more all over you that hey... wtf.

omg

i would be so embarrassed if the world saw my gender as that fuckin weak.

oh, wait... they do. we are the fuckin weak ones and you men are all that in strong.

hmmmm

so fuckin disgustingly confused.

[Orrex]

37. Way to ignore the real victim here

That preyed-upon 41-year-old! What was the poor guy supposed to do?

[niyad]

40. I can think of a couple of things. . . .

[seabeyond]

42. so sorry. i have done this to you twice. i read only part and do not finish your post before going

off

my sincere apology. i do that periodically and have to check myself.

sorry

[Orrex]

44. No harm!

[seabeyond]

46. thank you....

[BainsBane]

49. Orrex is cool

[gollygee]

47. I just re-read and noticed something else

She was 13 but it was totally ok in part because she looked 14 or 15? What??????? Like the judge recognizes 13 as too young but if she'd been 14 she'd be fair game so thinking she was a year or two older makes this understandable?

[BainsBane]

50. Not just predator but the girl was a "sexual predator."

She looked older than 14. How could a 41 year old man possibly resist her assault on him.

A judge allowed a paedophile to walk free after his 13-year-old victim was described as a 'sexual predator' who was 'egging him on' to engage in a sexual act.
Judge Nigel Peters told Neil Wilson, 41, who pleaded guilty to the abuse, he had also taken account the fact the child looked older.
Wilson lured the teenager to his home in Romford, Essex, where he watched her strip out of her school uniform before she performed a sex act on him.
The abuse did not come to light until the girl confided in a friend who then told police.

The judge said in open court:

‘I have taken in to account that even though the girl was 13, the prosecution say she looked and behaved a little bit older.
‘You knew she was not nearly 16 as she said and your plea of guilty recognises that you knew.
‘Allowing her to visit your home is something we have to clamp down on and in normal circumstances that would mean a significant term in prison.
‘On these facts, the girl was predatory and was egging you on.

67. IMO: The judge's ruling is unacceptable.

[PumpkinAle]

52. This happened in August............ immediately

The prosecutor Robert Colover has been suspended from prosecuting sexual offence cases pending a review by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS).

Judge Nigel Peters QC is also being investigated by the Office for Judicial Complaints.

55. Despicable. n/t

[dawg]

72. A grown-ass man has to be held accountable in a situation like this.

I have a long memory, and I know that some teenage girls can be *very* sexually aggressive. But a 41 year-old man has no excuse. None whatsoever.
